One decision can change everything—and grow into something bigger. 💜

At Breakthrough BASH, hosted by our partners at Friends of Breakthrough, we heard from an alum-turned-board member whose journey came full circle. Now, his three younger siblings are walking that same path at Breakthrough—learning, growing, and building their futures.

From student to leader, and now giving back—this is generational impact in action.

A gym. A community hub. A polling site.

Breakthrough Woodland Hills' new gym and multipurpose facility is so much more than four walls — and this video shows exactly what that looks like in action.

We premiered it at Breakthrough BASH, hosted by Friends of Breakthrough, and now we're sharing it with all of you. This is what support makes possible. 💜

Last week, we celebrated a huge milestone—our Class of 2026 8th graders promoted to high school! 🎉

We’re so proud of all they’ve accomplished and even more excited for what’s ahead. With support from the High School Placement team at Beyond Breakthrough, our scholars are heading to 46 high schools across the Cleveland area—including selective and non-selective schools, CMSD, community schools, public and private options, and all-boys, all-girls, and coed environments.

Even more incredible: they’ve secured $200,000 in scholarships for the 2026–27 school year through the Howley and Sullivan Scholarships.

The future is bright, and their journey is just beginning. 💫

What a year it’s been! 🎉

From the first day of school to the last, our scholars have grown, learned, and achieved so much—and it wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing families.

Take a moment to celebrate it all with our Year-End Wrapped video. It’s a joyful look back at the moments, milestones, and memories that made this year so special.

We hope it makes you proud—because there is so much to celebrate. Watch now!
